ok been through the thread...khan and byrne sparred before oisin ***an, which was when he was still at 135 and immediately after prescott, it got back to the british media on sky sports, because there was rumours he had been floored, but that was not true just rocked, and it was byrne who told ***an that he had hurt him but how brilliant khan had looked in sparring. Byrne also did an interview after the sparring in the build up to the ***an fight, when he talked about it, you can google that.
Now whether they have sparred since then im not sure about (pretty confident they haven't), but everything above is true. Khan clearly has a weak chin, but getting rocked with headgear on is quite normal, especially depending on where both fighters are in terms of their respective camps. One guy can be in much better shape.
